When,'se onetravels Velefarthe r the vineyards begin with their strange expanaea' of abort,'bare poles, about whioh the young' vines are•only beginning to climb, it is still paved ifrom •monotony by the oonttant recur- rence -of the cultivated fields with their crops for home consumption. „ • •- The farm,buildinge are so strange to the traveler that they merit a word of desorip- tion. I uilb•always of stone, usually coveted with comae mortar and arranged around a laage court -yard paved with oobble•atones,, the long, low houses with their steep gables have an aapect of solemnity from the ab- sence of windows which is out of harmony with their mailing surroundings. Whether it is economy or some strange perversity in regard to ire uses of sunlight, or simply another form of the distemper which causes the Canadian farmer's wife to pull down her curtains, close her blinds, and live in the dark, .I do not know, but the average farm house here is built as if' the sun were a criminal to be kept out with bolts and bars. It is quite probable that the occupants, women as well as mea, live so much in .he t opein air that the house is simply a plane to a at and Bleep in, so that the want is not felt as with us. Certainly their color is better an and there is more vivacity in their movement fu than among onr'tired, pale people. The h barns, stables, Dorn and outhouses all open t on the saute court as the duelling, but there a seemed to be no accumulation of dirt or br debris on that account. In this portion of to �F'rance, at least, the cleanliness of town and b cpuntry is very striking. When one remem. r bars the filth which disfigured the cabins in those beautiful Irish fields, one is forced to believe that the difference in system which 1 - makes makes the Frenchman his own landlord and w the Irishman only a tenant at the will of a t careless absentee must have something to do with the change. wa Orleans, after Paris, is like dropping into b the sixteenth after having been in the twen- a tieth century. The strangest feeling of" an- 'd tiquity possesses ane Spon entering. The wh narrow paved passages, with '.high, somber to houses frowning down, look more like ways pl inside the walla of.a fortress than ate streets of a city. .Stone and masonry are so. a beneath and about that the reality of a time w of warfare is constantly forced upon the th mind. .Even the squares, though sunny, ho are not bright and cheerful. Everywhere ap are reminders of the Mail of Orleans: and be the time to which she belonged. Shope of. mu every poasible description are named for a her, Jewelers reproduce her face, the her figure, her shield in their or -a r naments. Stationers fasten them into for their penholders ,and paper weights. Art wh galleries place her. pictures and statuettes "H before everything else in their collection.

Her eme statue is in half a do son places. In the con Hotel de Ville is a breeze copy of the de- pint sign executed in marble by the PrinoEsa d'Orleans—a dignified and beautiful con, iad ception doubly valuable as coming from the fan hands of a woman.

Under that of St, Aignan extends a crypt constructed by Charlemagne. To those who have been bred in the belief that all thereligiouspersecution oft the middle ages was the work of Catho- lics it is somewhat novel to find the desper- ate spirit of vandalism which dfefieured en they found themselves in power. The cathedral was razed to the. ground in 1567 St. Aignan tsitbin a;year from that time; St. and most of the other ohurohea of Orleans felt then fury. There seem to be two sides to every story.
